<Kent Condie> coauthored work using ancient volcanic rocks to constrain the <Earth>'s thermal history. Dated compositions were interpreted through melting models and compared with the evolution expected from internal heating and surface heat loss.<Thermal history of the Earth and its petrological expression by Claude Herzberg and others>[Abstract: ancient non-arc basalts and thermal-history interpretation]{ref}
The approach depends on identifying suitable source rocks and allowing for modification between initial melting and preservation.
